Going from a lowered car with stiff suspension running 45 profile tires to an SUV with 75 profile tires... Man, what a difference in ride comfort. Forgot how nice actual comfortable driving can be.

I clean out the wheel wells and the underbody when I change the tires back to summers.

5 degrees Celsius
Freezing cold water

And bonus... Am sick with a cold.

But it didn't stop me from doing a quick wash. Could
not believe how dirty it was after over a month
of no hand washes. Was tired of looking at the
caked on grime.

Mhm, it was fantastic to have hot water blasting out of the hose, kept mah hands nice and warm. I just bought an adapter from home depot for like 7 bucks that allowed me to connect the tap in the laundry room to a 100' hose.

Use hot/warm water for the wash buckets and wear gloves. It helps!

Thats what I did. Used warm water in the buckets and sacrificed using the hose for pre rinse and rinse.

This is the foam gun that I use:



I didn't buy a foam cannon b/c I like to wash my car often and I don't always have time to lug out my pressure washer.

Replaced my mirror with one I found at a junkyard in Surrey after someone smashed my original one to pieces the other day when it snowed. Glad/surprised the junkyard had one as my car isn't that common and 3 door ones use different mirrors than 5 doors, ordering a new one from the states would've been more expensive!

second oil change in a week -- oil came out gloopy as hell for only having ~500 KMs on it. Hoping most of the sludge is gone now.
Also did a second drain + refill of the tranny fluid, and tracked down a bunch of random squeeks/rattles, fixed 6 broken door clips in the process
